Amid energy disruptions caused by the ongoing West Asia crisis, the Government of India ensured 100 per cent supply of Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) to domestic consumers by prioritising their requirements.
While speaking at an Inter-Ministerial briefing on recent developments in West Asia, Sujata Sharma, Joint Secretary (Marketing & Oil Refinery) in the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, stated that the government implemented several effective measures to stabilise the energy landscape and maintain essential services. "As you know, due to the West Asia crisis, India's energy supplies were also affected. But the Indian government has taken many effective steps, due to which 100% supply has been ensured by prioritising domestic PNG and LPG consumers. Apart from this, CNG transport has also been 100% ensured," Sharma was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
Sujata Sharma, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas stated that OTP-based LPG delivery is being done to prevent diversion. In this regard, I would like to inform you that OTP is sent only to a registered mobile number. So if the consumer does not share this code with anyone else, then this code cannot be known to anyone else.”
Additionally, to prevent diversion, an OTP-based LPG delivery system has been implemented. In this process, the OTP is sent only to the consumer’s registered mobile number. Therefore, if the consumer does not share this code with anyone else, it remains secure and cannot be accessed by any other individual
To support these efforts, domestic refineries increased LPG production while the government adjusted booking intervals to 25 days in urban areas and 45 days in rural areas to manage demand.
